For Support To The Evidence In Governance And Politics Network

Overview
This grant will enable Evidence in Governance and Politics (EGAP) to carry out activities in four areas: (a) managing a coordinated research model called the Metaketa Initiative, contributing to evidence in taxation, natural resource governance, and other topics; (b) making research more accessible to practitioners by seeking out and expanding academic-practitioner partnerships and EGAP’s own membership, especially in low- and middle-income countries; (c) increasing the capacity of developing country researchers through experimental methods workshops; and (d) improving experimental methods by communicating research findings to policymakers with methods guides and policy briefs.
